Nadal won his second ATP tournament today. He was up 6-0, 4-0 when Martin decided to change things around... Nice win for Nadal, I am still anxious to see how he does on the red clay this year. Could he be a major threat at the FO?

Nadal will be a definite threat at Roland Garros this year. He IS a left after all

I was at this casino minding my own business, and this guy came up to me and said, "You're gonna have to move, you're blocking a fire exit." As though if there was a fire, I wasn't gonna run. If you're flammible and have legs, you are never blocking a fire exit. - Mitch Hedberg

I wish i coulda seen the match, but no tennis channel. Im so happy he won. And he is gonna stir things up at Roland Garros. Hes a lefty hes really tough, you take him to 5 sets and hes just fine. Hes an endurance player, he does better with longer matches. He loves clay. He didnt play the French last year due to a stress fracture in his foot. So im really hoping for the best.

Im hoping he does better than Guga and wins other slams, he can play on other surfaces. We saw what he could do in Oz. (BTW- the pic is cute, but its a lil old, like a year or so) but he still isnt near mature enough in his game to win slams on hard grass or rebound. I say he'll win French first and repeat it a couple times butthen Oz is his next best shot. The heat doesnt bother him at all and the surface is slow enough and not too fast and hes a fighter. He'll have the hardest time with Wimby but you never know. Im getting too ahead of myself!
